Question: REALITY CHECK: Kill the Messenger Frank, working as a hospital inspector, found a number of things wrong in his recent building inspection. At first glance the building shone-Frank was amazed by how the floors sparkled in the old building. But then, as Frank always does, he asked to look behind a corridor door. Behind the door, Frank found medical records stored on the floor in cardboard boxes, and these had been soaked by water and floor wax that had seeped under the door when the corridors where cleaned. Entries on the records were blurred, making them difficult to read, and the records appeared to have mold growing on them. Behind another door was a medical equipment repair room. Dust balls floated on the floor as the door was opened. There was food on the floor, and a can of soda had spilled and been allowed to dry. Equipment parts were strewn on the floor. The staff complained about Frank's findings. Before he left, the staff corrected the issues he had noted, hoping that he would remove these comments from his report. He did not remove them but did, however, explain what measures could be taken to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

1. Should Frank have overlooked his findings, as the staff pressed him not to report them? Discuss your answer.

2. Assuming you were Frank, would you have deleted the findings from your report?
